I am only getting 2 speaker audio thru my HDMI out of the Nvidia GPU. This happened only a few weeks ago. Cant figure out why. The Sony AVR still sends audio to all five speakers ( 5.0 configuration) - but the rear speakers are just repeating the fronts and no distinct center speaker - so no front/rear differences and I cannot set the volume on each speaker because they don't show up in the windows speaker setup. The the windows device manager - I have tried redownloading/updating the Nvidia latest audio drivers, I have attempted to download the Realtek audio - but it seems to only configure to the speaker outputs, not the HDMI. In the windows control panel the speaker configuration only lists stereo (2 speaker). It used to list stereo (2 speaker) then a bunch of other speaker options up to 7.1 and I could change each speakers volume in the balance area of the speaker configuration.
Any body know what happened - the only thing I can figure is a win10 update screwed it up. I did switch to a different AVR ( both Sony's) because I was having volume issues with the other Sony AVR - Turns out the amp was not working well as now I have great volume--but no 5.0 speaker configuration. I am pretty sure it was happening before I switched the AVR's.
Help is much appreciated.
